Chapter 950 - Chapter 950 Chapter 954 Shan Meng
Chapter 950: Chapter 954 Shan Meng Chapter 950: Chapter 954 Shan Meng When God Territories collided, countless terrible disasters ensued. Both Yuheng and Tianshu were facing dozens of large and small disasters, among which the Azure Rain Tribulation was one of the most terrifying, along with the Void Storm that was squished out from the collision of the two great God Territories.
Moreover, even though the landmasses of Greenwater and White Earth from the two God Territories were now interlocked, there were still many gaps between the boundaries of God Territory. These gaps were the main culprits of the Void Storms, which would only cease as the sea of nothingness slowly buffered them, gradually filling the crevices between God Territory’s borders.
Zhu Minglang and Lu Wu were currently walking within these crevices at the borders of the God Territory, where Nothingness Fog, Void Storms, Azure Demon Rains, Chaotic Magma, and Meteorite Fragments made these border gaps incredibly dangerous, with even deities facing a slim chance of survival.
With Lu Wu escorting and protecting him, Zhu Minglang didn’t have too much to worry about.
However, the exact location of Dragon Tail Mountain was giving Zhu Minglang a headache.
For a while, the Black Phoenix-clad maiden had not visited his dreams; otherwise, she might have been able to inform him of Dragon Tail Mountain’s exact whereabouts.
Ling Song had mentioned that the Ancient Gate was behind Dragon Tail Mountain, meaning they had to find the Ancient Gate first and use it as a reference to locate Dragon Tail Mountain.
The only issue was that the Void, akin to the boundless firmament, was incredibly difficult to navigate, as people usually relied on the sun, moon, and stars to discern direction, and they were currently in a place where celestial bodies wandered.
Lu Wu was evidently familiar with the chaos of the Void, having visited near the Ancient Gate multiple times. Stepping on the Flying Sword, despite various spatial resistances, they were getting closer to the Ancient Gate, although its location was further away than Zhu Minglang had imagined.
What was simply a narrow crack in the God Territory turned out to be a space that was dozens to hundreds of times larger than it appeared, clearly compressed by the colossal body of the God Territory itself.
After traversing numerous fog mountains formed by the Nothingness Fog and walking across several paths of “rock trails” made from the fragments of God Territory’s meteors, Zhu Minglang finally saw a terrifying abyss in the midst of the chaotic void of starry sky!
Countless celestial fragments drifting towards the abyss would suddenly plummet, and during the descent, they would be rendered into nothingness by some force. As Zhu Minglang and Lu Wu approached, a large uninhabited peninsula, unbeknownst whether it had broken away from Yuheng or Tianshu, was swiftly heading towards the abyss.
To Zhu Minglang’s shock, the landmass of the uninhabited peninsula was equivalent in size to Li Chuan, yet upon reaching the location of the abyss, it simply vanished into thin air.
It was unclear if it had disintegrated too swiftly or had actually passed through the abyssal door to arrive at the Other Side of the Starry Sky.
“Can you see,” Lu Wu asked, pointing to the void abyss, “some silvery substance at the edge of that downward streaming void?”
“Yes, indeed it closely resembles the texture of Silver Dawn Shard,” Zhu Minglang nodded.
They resembled silvery pebbles beneath a clear lake’s waterfall, stacking right at the edge of the void abyss, outlining its rough perimeter. Otherwise, with the sky faintly lit, deities flying nearby could easily be swallowed by the abyss by accident and become entangled with those celestial fragments.
“Go on, I’ll guard you,” Lu Wu said.
Zhu Minglang said no more.
The two great God Territories were suffering terribly from the Azure Rain Tribulation. If this catastrophe could be quickly curbed, it would allow the people of the world to return to their peaceful lives sooner, a great act of merit.
Although Zhu Minglang’s divine merits did not rely on saving people, he was considered half a Good cultivator. Similarly, Good cultivators would continuously offer some things beneficial to themselves…
Zhu Minglang neared the edge of the Silver Dawn Door.
Suddenly, something like a morass within the depths of the Silver Dawn Door began writhing. As Zhu Minglang peered carefully downward, he saw a massive head stuck inside the door.
It was clearly trying to crawl out but seemed to be blocked by some force, like a terrifying beast struggling to climb out of a breached cage!
Ancient Sacred Demon!!
A living, breathing Ancient Sacred Demon!!
Zhu Minglang involuntarily gasped.
Ancient Yaos were mostly Demon cultivators at the Divine Realm.
Even so, Ancient Yaos could only be considered Little Demons among the Ancient Species.
Ancient Sacred Demons were the leaders among the Ancient Species. Each of them had survived for tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even more years, their birth tracing back to the original myths of the gods.
The ancient Sacred Demon that Zhu Minglang saw stuck in the Silver Dawn Door had a human face, but its head was like that of a witch eagle, covered in gray feathers akin to chaotic and bizarre capes hanging on its back. At first glance, it looked like an old crone wearing a straw raincoat, but upon closer inspection, it was clear that its body was utterly bizarre and alien in ways normal beings could not describe.
Its arms were like those of a rat, yet its feet were the talons of an eagle. The aged human face was contorting into a disturbing, insincere smile, as if a cyan smiling mask overlaid on a monster’s visage.
“It’s Shan Meng!” exclaimed Mr. Jinli, floating out, looking at the Ancient Sacred Demon stuck in the Silver Dawn Door with some panic.
If an Ancient Yao had a name, it indicated an exceptionally old and notorious existence.
Folklore had always passed down ancient mythological stories. Some of the Ancient Beasts known for their kindness to people were called Swiss Beasts or auspicious creatures, with Jinli being the most widely spread, a symbol of prosperity across all walks of life. Besides that, there were others like Azure Dragon, Kylin, Phoenix, and so on…
On the opposite side, equally infamous were the evil spirits used by the folk to scare children into not staying out at night or going to bed late. Shan Meng was one of them!
People describe its image as follows, from afar, it appears hunchbacked, but in fact, it carries a filthy, feather-woven sack on its back, filled with children who have not returned home and run around aimlessly. When the sack is stuffed full, it resembles a hunchbacked elderly person, yet this elder always sports a seemingly kind but insincere smile…
Many in the countryside adept at depicting evil spirits have used Shan Meng as a typical example, and it is not uncommon to see some demon-worshipping churches venerating Shan Meng as their deity!
Such mythic creatures must have committed heinous atrocities for their infamy to last thousands of years, so that even as the domains of the continent fracture and fall apart, the people still live with an ingrained racial fear of it.
It is likely that Shan Meng once brought humanity to the brink of extinction.
If such an Ancient Sacred Demon were to emerge, just the news of it would scare to death who knows how many children.
When Zhu Minglang approached, Shan Meng also saw him.
Shan Meng spread its mouth, emitting a weird, hoarse laughter.
Most Ancient Sacred Demons are fluent in the language of the Human Race. Zhu Minglang felt as if it recognized him, staring at him for quite a while. The smile it revealed was not the legendary insincere oddity, but a genuine smile from the heart.
“You’ve arrived!” Shan Meng actually spoke human language.
Zhu Minglang frowned. Did it truly recognize him?
Was it because of the Sword Evil Dragon? Could it be among the Holy Devil souls he had battled within his Divine Sense Sea with the Sword Spirit Dragon, there was Shan Meng’s?
But those Holy Devil souls should have belonged to Ancient Sacred Demons who were already brutally tortured to death; this Shan Meng appeared to be exceedingly healthy, its demonic aura so pervasive that it filled this Void area like a dense smoke enveloping everything.
Having never met it before, why would it greet him with such warmth?
Zhu Minglang felt extremely puzzled, but his confusion lasted only a moment, as he suddenly realized something and whipped his head around, only to see that Lu Wu, the Immortal Master who had been escorting him, was standing behind him at some point!
Zhu Minglang’s heart gave a violent throb!
Shan Meng wasn’t greeting him…
It was greeting the Immortal Master Lu Wu behind him!!
Zhu Minglang felt a surge of goosebumps all over his body.
Considering Shan Meng’s strength, Zhu Minglang even suspected it might have reached the God King Level.
The Immortal Master Lu Wu behind him was, even more so, a Divine Monarch.
“Is this the key you brought for me? I can hardly wait to trample upon the offspring of the ancient gods. It has been so many years, I have forgotten the taste of ancient god blood. Surely their descendants, the deities’ children, must be exceedingly sweet and delicious,” Shan Meng continued to speak.
These words were still addressed to Lu Wu.
A smile also appeared on Lu Wu’s face.
“To help you escape, I have exerted quite a bit of effort,” Lu Wu said.
“You are very good. You’ve shattered this door, and now you’ve brought the key to the ancient restrictions. You are really quite good!” Shan Meng went on to say.
“This is a once-in-a-millennium opportunity. I will not miss it again,” Lu Wu said.
Lu Wu conversed with Shan Meng while Zhu Minglang, caught between them, seemed to be regarded as an object. Neither Shan Meng nor Lu Wu deemed Zhu Minglang significant enough to notice, nor did they believe he possessed the ability to flee.
Zhu Minglang’s heart sank.
That the Silver Dawn Door was shattered turned out to be Lu Wu’s doing.
She was the foremost sovereign of the Yuheng Star Palace, second only to the Yuheng deity in status!
How could such a being betray the Human Race and the deities!
Zhu Minglang found it hard to believe!
Most importantly, it was completely unexpected.
Everything Lu Wu had done before indicated she was a True God who tirelessly toiled for the mortals, taking the world’s burdens as her own. Now, all of a sudden, she transformed into a ferocious deity, even playing all the True Gods of the two great God Territories in the palm of her hands…
“This is bad, this is bad, she is one of the Seven Calamities Emperor, she is one of the Seven Calamities Emperor!” Mr. Jinli shouted out in fright.
Zhu Minglang also felt his scalp tingle, and a chill begin to take over his whole body!!!
He remembered Star Painting mentioning to him that among the Four Calamities and the Seven Calamities Emperor, some might appear among the deity figures controlled by the Demon Heart!!
